Libreoffice plugin version not updated?

enozkan
I installed the latest libreoffice plugin in beta (8.0-beta.6) and the stable (7.0.23). and in both cases it shows the old version from Sep 2024 (7.0.1) in Libreoffice (25.2.5.2).

I installed both automatically and manually. Same results. Also, the Manual Installattion button in the plugin installation window does not respond in my hands, though I have trouble finding the .oxt file under /Applications/Zotero.app/Contents/Resources/integration/libreoffice

This is on an M1 Macbook Pro running Sequoia 15.6 and the ARM version of Libreoffice with Java JRE 21.0.8.

    Looks like we haven't bumped the internal version number in a while, but both 7.0.23 and 8.0-beta.6 have the latest plugin (7.0.4).

    Thanks. I see that the new version built on github still installs as 7.0.1. This is fine, obviously, though upon installation the new oxt gives a warning, which may deter some from installing the updated version:

    7.0.5 was just reverting to the unmodified 7.0.3 .oxt due to an LO bug. We'll align the internal version number when the .oxt is rebuilt in a future release.

    (The plugin should be auto-installed for most people, and the internal number doesn't matter in that case. Only people manually installing the plugin would see that warning.)

    (Yes, in my case, the plugin does not autoinstall. Nuking the profile only works once, and I have to go back to manual installations again. Have no idea why.)

    LibreOffice extensions was just updated to 7.0.6 for me using 8.0-beta.7+bdf49b9b0

    Yes, the oxt numbers should update properly going forward.
